Paris Cafe
142 McAllister St, San Francisco, CA
Crema's Take
“This San Francisco hidden gem offers a refreshingly spacious interior that feels almost luxurious for an urban café, making it the perfect refuge when other downtown spots are overrun. The standout here is their genuinely impressive pastry selection and baked goods paired with solid coffee craftsmanship—locals rave about both the foam on their lattes and thoughtful options like vegan hot chocolate and vegetarian fare. It's the kind of place that rewards discovery: quiet enough for a peaceful morning or focused work, welcoming enough for friends and families to linger, and consistently good enough to bring people back again and again.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I love this place, it's such a hidden gem! My friends and I came here for a snack on Saturday and back again for breakfast on Sunday, and will happily come back again. The pastries are delightful and so well made; we had croissants, pain au chocolate, mini beignets, and when we…
